I want to control a swimmingpool pump which pumps the water through some piping on the roof which heats the water in the pool.
Idea was to use an amiga500 or 1200 with a relaycard.
Can I use all parallelrelay cards for this?
Which software is best to control this..
Was thinking about C64 to do the control as it is easier to program in basic...If I remember all commando's.
But This has no RTC so makes it difficult to make a timescheme.
Is it also possible to have a input to the amiga?
Like a tempsensor saying Yes 30 degrees so pump on..
Yes, It's all posible. But I'm afraid you'll need to write your own control program. Also, you must notice the amiga has a powered pin (14) that you must leave unconnected to prevent destroying your computer.
It's convenient to use a optoisolated relay board too.
You can use the parallel and joystic ports as digital inputs too.
Joystick ports has analogic inputs for pads, that can be used for reading values from resistive probes, as LDRs, NTC and PTC resistors, etc..
